Hardy Plant Society Study Weekend
Barrager garden
Just up the street from Barbara Ashmun’s garden, her nearby neighbour Doug Barrager’s garden was also on tour. I do love when tour gardens are walking distance from each other.

hydrangeas
I want this lace cap hydrangea.
I like the precisely cut flowers. Allan overheard some tour guests saying this is an unusual cultivar.
Jeanne and I marveled at the perfection of the hostas.
